Metallic taste: The sudden appearance of a metallic taste is often a mystery. Possible causes include decayed, fractured or infected teeth, infected gums, allergies, mouth or throat infections, stomach problems, acid reflux, diet, smoking, systemic disease. There may be no definitive reason, and there may be no cure. If the taste persists, see your dentist and/or an ENT specialist.
